1 DEPARTMENT OF HEALTH & HUMAN SERVICES Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services 7500 Security Boulevard, Mail Stop S Baltimore, Maryland Medicaid & CHIP: April 2014 Monthly Applications, Eligibility Determinations, and Enrollment Report June 4, 2014 Background This monthly report on state Medicaid and Children s Health Insurance Program (CHIP) data represents state Medicaid and CHIP agencies eligibility activity for the calendar month of April While the initial open enrollment period for the Health Insurance Marketplace ( Marketplace hereafter) ended on March 31 st, Medicaid and CHIP enrollment continues year round. The data included in this report were submitted to CMS from state Medicaid and CHIP agencies as part of the Medicaid and CHIP Performance Indicator process and supplement data on Marketplace activity released by the Department of Health and Human Services (HHS). Through the Medicaid and CHIP Performance Indicator process, states report on a common set of indicators designed to provide information to support program management and policy-making. State Medicaid and CHIP programs submit data to CMS on a range of indicators related to application, eligibility and enrollment processes. States are still transitioning to the standardized data definitions described in Appendix A, which limits the conclusions that can be drawn from the data. As with previous reports, this report focuses on those monthly indicators that relate to the application and enrollment process: The number of applications submitted directly to Medicaid and CHIP agencies, including those received through State-Based Marketplaces (SBMs); The number of eligibility determinations made by Medicaid and CHIP agencies on the applications described above, as well as applications to the Federally-Facilitated Marketplace (FFM) in states for which the FFM makes an eligibility assessment (and the state then completes the Medicaid or CHIP determination); and The total number of individuals enrolled in the Medicaid and CHIP programs who are receiving comprehensive benefits. As with each monthly report, given that states are reporting monthly data to CMS soon after the close of the month, the April data presented in this report should be considered preliminary. We have also published updated data for March applications, eligibility determinations, and enrollment on Medicaid.gov, which includes a more complete data set than the preliminary March data reported last month. It is important to note that Medicaid and CHIP are longstanding programs that serve many populations in addition to those that might be newly eligible for Medicaid under the new low-income adult group established by the Affordable Care Act. Therefore, this report, which measures eligibility and enrollment activity for the entire Medicaid and CHIP programs, necessarily captures data beyond the newly eligible individuals in states that have expanded Medicaid coverage. In addition, this report includes data from all states, not just those that have adopted the new low-income adult group. Changes in eligibility and enrollment processes ushered in by the Affordable Care Act, which are discussed below, are in effect in

2 all states and are likely to promote coverage among previously eligible but uninsured adults and children. The data elements are explained more fully in Appendix A. All 50 states and the District of Columbia ( states hereafter) are in the process of implementing the Affordable Care Act simplifications to the Medicaid and CHIP application and eligibility determination processes and making technology upgrades to transition to streamlined, data-driven eligibility determination systems. As states shift to these new eligibility and enrollment systems, we will continue to see improvements in reporting capacity. For more information about the eligibility and enrollment simplifications and improvements states are making to their programs, please see Appendix B. Page 2 of 24

3 Medicaid and CHIP April 2014 Enrollment Data Highlights Total Individuals Enrolled in Medicaid and CHIP in April in All States Reporting April Data 2 (includes all individuals enrolled in the program 65,016,775 on the last day of the reporting period) 1 Across the 48 states (including the District of Columbia) that provided enrollment data for April 2014, states reported that approximately 65 million individuals were enrolled in Medicaid and CHIP. This enrollment count is point-in-time (on the last day of the month) and includes all enrollees in the Medicaid and CHIP programs who are receiving a comprehensive benefit package. 3 (Connecticut, Maine, and North Dakota are not included in this count.) More than 1.1 million additional people were enrolled in April as compared to March in the 48 states that reported both April and March data. (Connecticut, Maine, and North Dakota are not included in this count.) Looking at the additional enrollment since October when the Marketplace open enrollment began, among the 48 states reporting both April 2014 enrollment data and data from July- September of 2013, over 6 million additional individuals are enrolled in Medicaid and CHIP, a 10.3 percent increase over the average monthly enrollment for July through September of (Connecticut, Maine, and North Dakota are not included in this count.) 5 Among states that adopted the Medicaid expansion and whose expansions were in effect in April 2014, Medicaid and CHIP enrollment rose by 15.3 percent compared to the July-September 1 See State-by-State Table notes for state-specific caveats regarding the reported data. Connecticut and North Dakota did not submit enrollment data for April. Maine s data is also omitted because it was not comparable to the data submitted by other states. It is important to note that the enrollment measure is a total count of enrollment in Medicaid and CHIP, not solely a count of those newly enrolled during the reporting period. Individuals who are only eligible for limited benefits under the Medicaid and CHIP programs (e.g., emergency Medicaid, family planning-only coverage, limited benefit dual eligible individuals, and Medicaid 1115 demonstration populations with limited benefits) are excluded from this indicator in all reporting periods. 2 This number is not directly comparable to prior months numbers because the states reporting differ. For example, Connecticut reported March data in last month s report but was not yet able to report April s data. 3 See footnote 1. 4 The 48 states reporting both April 2014 enrollment data and data from July-September 2013 report total enrollment in April of approximately 65 million individuals. See State-by-State Table notes for state-specific caveats regarding the reported data, which is calculated including only the states that provided data for both periods. 5 Connecticut and North Dakota are excluded because of missing data, and Maine s data is omitted because it was not comparable to the data submitted by other states. Last month we reported an enrollment increase of 4.8 million over the pre-aca baseline and this month we are reporting a 1.1 million increase from March to April. Several states have made corrections to the July-September baseline, resulting in approximately 100,000 fewer individuals in this report s total average monthly enrollment for the baseline period, as compared to the value published in last month s report. Using the corrected baseline, more than 6 million additional people are enrolled in April, as compared to the July-September period. Page 3 of 24

4 2013 baseline period, while states that have not, to date, expanded Medicaid reported a 3.3 percent increase over the same period. 6 Nine of the 24 states whose Medicaid expansions were in effect in April 2014 and that reported relevant data for both April and the pre-open enrollment baseline period experienced an enrollment increase of 25 percent or more. 7 Michigan s Medicaid expansion went into effect on April 1, 2014, and total enrollment grew almost 7 percent between March and April These enrollment counts are in addition to the enrollment increases from the nearly 950,000 individuals who gained coverage as a result of the Affordable Care Act before open enrollment began. 8 Seven states implemented an early option to expand Medicaid coverage to adults with incomes up to 133 percent of the FPL between April 1, 2010 and January 1, 2014, using new state plan authority provided by the Affordable Care Act or a Section 1115 demonstration building upon that authority. 9 It is important to note that multiple factors contribute to the change in enrollment between April 2014 and the July-September 2013 baseline period, including but not limited to changes attributable to the Affordable Care Act. The April 2014 enrollment numbers understate total Medicaid and CHIP enrollment because not all states are reporting and the data are preliminary. In addition, Medicaid and CHIP eligible individuals who applied in April and whose application will be fully processed after April 30 th will be enrolled effective back to at least the date of application or the first of the month; those enrollments are not reflected in these preliminary data. These enrollment data may differ from other published state and national enrollment figures because they only include individuals with comprehensive benefits; for example, individuals only receiving limited coverage for family planning services and those 6 Percentage calculations are based only on states reporting in both April 2014 and the July through September, 2013 baseline period. New Hampshire is not included in these percentages because its expansion is not implemented as of April Medicaid expansion states that reported data with a greater than 25 percent increase in enrollment are: Colorado, Kentucky, Maryland, Nevada, Oregon, Rhode Island, Vermont, Washington, and West Virginia (8 of these 9 states also run State-based Marketplaces). Among expansion states, the percent change in the number of individuals enrolled varies based on the size of the coverage expansion that is occurring in States that previously offered comprehensive coverage to many adults with incomes under 133 percent of the federal poverty level will see a smaller increase than those who previously offered only coverage for very low-income parents. Additionally, in most states that provided Medicaid coverage to adults with incomes above 133 percent of the federal poverty level prior to 2014, those individuals are no longer eligible for or enrolled in Medicaid and instead may be eligible to purchase coverage in a for qualified health plan through the Marketplace, and may be eligible for advanced payments of premium tax credits and cost-sharing reductions; this change will reduce their overall Medicaid enrollment. New Hampshire is not included because its expansion is not implemented as of April Enrollment data for California, Colorado, the District of Columbia, Minnesota, and New Jersey was reported to CMS by the state and is from the end of Data for Connecticut and Washington is from 2012 (source: Sommers, B. D., Arntson, E., Kenney, G. M., et al., Lesson from Early Medicaid Expansions under Health Reform: Interviews with Medicaid Officials, Medicare & Medicaid Research Review, 2013: Volume 3, number 4 ( 9 Connecticut, the District of Columbia, Minnesota utilized state plan authority, while California, Colorado, New Jersey, and Washington provided the coverage through Section 1115 demonstration authority.

6 Medicaid and CHIP April 2014 Application and Eligibility Data Highlights April 2014 Monthly in All States Reporting Total Applications for Financial Assistance Initially Received by State Medicaid and CHIP Agencies (note that more than one individual may be included on an application and some states have included renewals and transfers from the FFM) Total Applications for Financial Assistance Initially Received by State Based Marketplaces (note that more than one individual may be included on an application) Total Individuals Determined Eligible for Medicaid and CHIP by State Agencies (includes those newly eligible under the Affordable Care Act and those eligible under prior law and, for some states, renewals) 2,431, ,101, ,614, As noted above, during the month of April 2014, total of approximately 2.4 million applications for financial assistance (including Medicaid and CHIP coverage, tax credits and subsidies) were received directly by state Medicaid and CHIP agencies. When applications received by SBMs are included, total applications for coverage and financial assistance submitted at the state level reached 3.5 million (including 2.4 received directly by state Medicaid and CHIP agencies and approximately 1.1 million received by SBMs). 14 The State-by-State table includes a comparison of the total applications for financial assistance to state agencies (including applications for Medicaid, CHIP, and financial assistance in the Marketplace in SBM states) in April as compared to the prior month (March). Most states experienced declines in applications between March and April 2014, which is expected, given the close 11 See State-by-State Table notes for state-specific caveats regarding the reported data; because of reporting capability some states included some renewals, applications to SBMs, or transfers from the FFM in these data. Arizona, Maine, and Missouri did not provide April 2014 Medicaid and CHIP agency application data. Tennessee only provided application data on their CHIP program. 12 See State-by-State Table notes for state-specific caveats regarding the reported data; because of reporting capability some states reported renewals in these data and included applications received by their SBMs in their Medicaid and CHIP agency application data. New York is reporting all applications through their SBM. 13 See State-by-State Table notes for state-specific caveats regarding the reported data; because of reporting capability some states reported some renewals in these data. Arizona, Massachusetts, Maine, Missouri, and Washington did not provide April 2014 determination data. Tennessee only provided determination data on their CHIP program. 14 The following states have included renewals in their April 2014 application data: Nevada, New Mexico, Ohio, and Pennsylvania. The following states have included transfers from the FFM in their April 2014 application data: Illinois, Florida, and South Dakota. Subtotals do not sum to total due to rounding. Page 6 of 24

7 of the Marketplace open enrollment period in March This decline is particularly noticeable in SBM states where applications for financial assistance in the Marketplace are included in the total number of applications. In Michigan, which expanded Medicaid effective April 1, 2014, applications increased by almost 50 percent in April, compared to March. 16 Note that these application numbers do not include applications received at the FFM and subsequently transferred to state Medicaid or CHIP agencies (see State-by-State Table notes for exceptions). States reported making approximately 2.6 million eligibility determinations for Medicaid and CHIP in April 2014 for individuals applying for coverage: approximately 1.5 million determinations in states with Medicaid expansions in effect and 1.1 million in other states. As described above and in prior reports, this figure includes all of state Medicaid and CHIP agencies determinations for individuals eligible under prior law, as well as through coverage expansions under the Affordable Care Act; note that, due to limitations on the data some states are able to report, the number of determinations includes renewals in those states. 17 Additionally, the determination number does not represent unique individuals, as an individual may have more than one eligibility determination. This report also reflects the continuation of administrative transfers in Oregon and California, discussed further below. It is important to keep in mind that differences in volume of administrative transfers and other types of one-time enrollment activities can affect month-to-month comparisons of eligibility data. See the Eligibility Data tab on Medicaid.gov at Moving-Forward-2014/Medicaid-Moving-Forward-2014.html for preliminary and updated data on applications and determinations for October 2013 through March Kentucky, Michigan, Oklahoma, Texas, and West Virginia are the only states reporting in both March and April 2014 that had an increase in applications over that period. 16 As noted in the State-by-State tables, a few states are including account transfers from the FFM in their application data for purposes of this report. 17 These states have included renewals in their April 2014 determination data: Alaska, District of Columbia, Iowa, Maryland, Michigan, Nevada, New Mexico, Rhode Island, South Dakota, Texas, Vermont and Virginia. Some of these renewals are conducted without the individual submitting a new application, using information already in the system that the individual is asked to verify. Page 7 of 24

8 Administrative Transfers: Success in Five States Total Individuals Determined Eligible through Administrative Transfer, September April 2014 Arkansas 63,465 California 247,661 Illinois 35,900 Oregon 139,440 West Virginia 70,574 Total 557,040 In response to CMS guidance provided on May 17, 2013, some states are employing a new tool for facilitating Medicaid enrollment of eligible individuals to conduct an administrative transfer to Medicaid while they complete implementation of their eligibility and enrollment systems. This method uses Supplemental Nutritional Assistance Program (SNAP) income information that states already have to identify individuals who are likely eligible for Medicaid and CHIP. As of the end of April 2014, five states had implemented this strategy and a total of 557,040, individuals have been determined eligible for Medicaid or CHIP as a result of this new authority, an increase of 43,278 from March. 18 Data Limitations CMS established a common set of definitions for consistency in reporting the Medicaid and CHIP performance indicators; these definitions appear in Appendix A. States are at various points in the process of transitioning from their historic definitions to the updated standardized reporting specifications. Where states have provided data that vary from the specifications, we have noted that information in notes in the State-by-State table. State-by-State Table Below is a table with state-specific data on the total number of people enrolled in state Medicaid and CHIP programs in April 2014, followed by a table with data on Medicaid and CHIP applications and eligibility determinations for the month of April The description of each data element included in the table is available in Appendix A. Unless otherwise noted, the reporting period for all elements is April 1-30, Future Reports In future months, we will continue to expand the number of performance indicators that will be included in this report. 18 New Jersey has received approval to use the administrative transfer enrollment strategy, but has not yet implemented this strategy.

18 APPENDIX A Each of the columns in the table is described here with a column number (I-XIV). A Note about Federally-Facilitated Marketplace Types: Federally-Facilitated Marketplaces (FFMs) can take several forms, including the State Partnership Marketplace (Partnership), States performing Plan Management functions (Plan Management), Supported SBMs, and the State-Based Small Business Health Options Program (SB-SHOP). These models are referenced in the State-by-State Table. All of these models are referred to as an FFM in this Report. Application Data Elements New Applications Submitted to Medicaid and CHIP Agencies, April 2014 (I) Number of applications received by the Medicaid agency, a separate CHIP agency (if one exists in the state), or both during the reporting period. Includes applications received online, via mail, in person or phone. Does not include applications submitted to a State-Based Marketplace (SBM) or the Federally-Facilitated Marketplace (FFM) (the SBM number is reported in column IV). 19 It should be noted that data reflected in this performance indicator are not a count of individuals, as more than one person may be included on a single application. As states are transitioning to new systems, they may not be able to report applications received across all aspects of their programs or systems. See the state-specific notes in the table for further information about state limitations in this area As described in the state-specific notes in the tables, some states included account transfers from the FFM in the total count of applications received by Medicaid/CHIP agencies. 20 As described in the state-specific notes in the tables, some states included renewals in the total count of applications received by Medicaid/CHIP agencies. Page 18 of 24

19 Applications for Financial Assistance Submitted to the State-Based Marketplace, April 2014 (II) Number of applications requesting financial assistance (Medicaid, CHIP or the Advanced Premium Tax Credit and Cost-Sharing Reductions) that have been received by the SBM during the reporting period. Total Preliminary Applications for Financial Assistance Submitted at the State Level, April 2014 (III) Total Preliminary Applications for Financial Assistance Submitted at the State Level, March 2014 (IV) For states with an SBM, the data reflect the total of Applications Submitted to Medicaid and CHIP Agencies plus Applications for Financial Assistance Submitted to the State-Based Marketplace. For FFM states, the data reflect Applications Submitted to Medicaid and CHIP Agencies. For SBM states, the data include all applications for financial assistance; individuals on these applications will be determined eligible for Medicaid, CHIP or Advanced Premium Tax Credits and Cost-Sharing Reductions, or determined ineligible for financial assistance. The April 2014 data was submitted in May and is considered preliminary. The March 2014 data in this table was submitted in April and is also preliminary. March data that was updated in May (which may include additional who applied in March, but who were not captured in the preliminary data) is posted separately under the Eligibility Data tab on Medicaid.gov. Percentage Change March 2014 to April 2014 (V) The percentage change in Total Preliminary Applications for Financial Assistance Submitted at the State Level, April 2014 (III) as compared to Total Preliminary Applications Submitted at the State Level, March 2014 (IV) is calculated for states that provided data for both periods. Eligibility Determination Data Elements Individuals Determined Eligible for Medicaid at Application (VI) Total number of individuals determined eligible for Medicaid (under title XIX of the Social Security Act) during the reporting period based on applications for coverage submitted to any state agency (Medicaid, CHIP or the SBM) or based on an administrative determination authorized under a targeted enrollment strategy approved by CMS. 21 The unit of measurement is a count of individuals (as compared to the application numbers, which may include multiple people in one application). This number includes all determinations on applications made within the reporting period some of those determinations are on applications reported in the Applications data, and some are on applications received prior to the reporting period. This does not include determinations made at a periodic redetermination or because of a change in 21 Information on targeted enrollment strategies and the states approved for these strategies is available here: html. Page 19 of 24

20 circumstance for a current beneficiary. 22 The unit of measurement is people with determinations completed; this is not an unduplicated number of unique individuals because an individual may have more than one determination within the reporting period. For example, individuals are first determined based on MAGI, and if needed, may request a subsequent determination based on non-magi factors. A list of which eligibility groups are MAGI and which are non-magi is available on Medicaid.gov. As states are transitioning to their new systems, they may not be able to report determinations being made across all aspects of their programs or systems (i.e., the legacy systems they are winding down and the new eligibility systems they are implementing). See the notes in the table for further information about state limitations in this area. In states receiving account transfers from the FFM in April where the FFM makes an eligibility assessment (and the state then completes the Medicaid determination), this number includes determinations made on accounts assessed as eligible and transferred from the FFM. In other states, where the state has delegated to the FFM the authority to make Medicaid eligibility determinations, the report does not include the FFM determinations, because the Medicaid/CHIP agency is not performing the determinations, and instead is accepting the account transfer and proceeding with enrollment steps. Individuals determined eligible by the FFM are included in the Total Enrolled indicators. For more information about the assessment and determination models in FFM states see Medicaid.gov. Individuals Determined Eligible for CHIP at Application (VII) Total number of individuals determined eligible for CHIP (under title XXI of the Social Security Act) during the reporting period that follows the applicant submitting an application for coverage to any state agency (Medicaid, CHIP, or the SBM). This number includes all determinations at application made within the reporting period some of those determinations are on applications reported in the Applications data, and some are on applications received prior to the reporting period. As states are transitioning to their new systems, they may not be able to report determinations being made across all aspects of their programs or systems (i.e., the legacy systems they are winding down and the new eligibility systems they are implementing). See the footnotes in the table for further information about state limitations in this area. The unit of measurement is people with determinations completed; this is not an unduplicated number of unique individuals. In states receiving account transfers from the FFM in April where the FFM makes an eligibility assessment (and the state then completes the CHIP determination), this number includes determinations made on accounts assessed as eligible and transferred from the FFM. In other states, where the state has delegated to the FFM the authority to make a CHIP eligibility determination, the report does not include the FFM determinations, because the Medicaid/CHIP agency is not performing a determination, and instead is accepting the account transfer and proceeding with enrollment steps. Individuals determined eligible by the FFM are included in 22 As described in the state-specific notes in the tables, some states, due to data limitations, could not provide data that met our specifications. Notes are provided in cases where the state included renewals in this data element. Page 20 of 24

21 the Total Enrolled indicators. For more information about the assessment and determination models in FFM states see Medicaid.gov. Total New Determinations (VIII) The total of Individuals Determined Eligible for Medicaid at Application plus Individuals Determined Eligible for CHIP at Application. Page 21 of 24

22 Enrollment Data Elements Total Medicaid and CHIP Enrollment, March 2014 (preliminary) (IX) Total Medicaid and CHIP Enrollment, April 2014 (preliminary) (X) The total unduplicated number of individuals enrolled in Medicaid and CHIP as of the last day of the reporting period, including those with retroactive, conditional, and presumptive eligibility. This indicator is a point-in-time count of total program enrollment, and is not solely a count of those newly enrolled during the reporting period. This number includes only those individuals who are eligible for comprehensive benefits (e.g., emergency Medicaid, family planning-only coverage and limited benefit dual eligible individuals are excluded). Medicaid Section 1115 demonstration populations are included as long as the benefits and networks are comprehensive. CHIP children subject to a waiting period or premium lock-out period are considered eligible but not enrolled and are not included. The April 2014 data was submitted in May and is considered preliminary. 23 The March 2014 data in this table was submitted in April and is also preliminary. March data that was updated in May (which may include more individuals with retroactive eligibility) is posted separately under the Eligibility Data tab on Medicaid.gov. Other reporting on Medicaid and CHIP enrollment by states and researchers often may include some beneficiaries excluded in this data (because comprehensive coverage is not provided), or otherwise use a different methodology. Percent Change March to April (XI) The percentage change in Total Medicaid and CHIP Enrollment, April 2014 (XI) as compared to Total Medicaid and CHIP Enrollment, March 2014 (X) is calculated for states that provided data for both periods. In cases where there is a negative percentage change, this may be due to a number of factors. Changes in enrollment levels are driven by the number of newly enrolled individuals as well as by the number of individuals whose coverage has terminated. Pre-Open Enrollment Monthly Average Medicaid and CHIP Enrollment (July-Sept 2013) (XII) The average number of individuals enrolled in Medicaid and CHIP for each month during the July-September 2013 period using an average of enrollment numbers submitted by the states for each month in this period. Not all states submitted three months of data; the average is calculated using any months of baseline data that were provided. The unit of measurement is individuals enrolled as of the last day of the reporting period (month). This baseline data include more retroactive enrollments than the April data, which makes change between the July through September period and the April preliminary data look smaller than it would be if retroactive enrollments were excluded from the data for the July-September, 2013 period. 24 Such exclusions were not possible. 23 In Medicaid, individuals are potentially eligible for retroactive eligibility to cover incurred health care costs up to 90 days prior to the date of application. Under the Performance Indicator process, states initially submit their monthly enrollment data just a week after the month closes, and then update their data one month later. Therefore, the Performance Indicator enrollment counts will always be slightly understated, as they will not include all individuals granted retroactive eligibility. 24 See footnote 28. Page 22 of 24
